Michael Imhotep host of The African History Network Show on 5-28-19 discussed the monumental archaeological discovery of the last Slave Ship called the Clotilda that came into Alabama in 1860. This was during a period of time when the International Slave Trade was abolished by the U.S. Congress so this Slave Trafficking was illegal.  The survivors of the Clotilda Slave Ship including Cudjo Lewis who was interviewed by Zora Neal Hurston for her book "Baracoon" released in 2018, went on to setup a community near Mobile, AL called Africatown.
